From pl at datta.vic.edu.au Wed Mar 3 02:40:56 2021 From: pl at datta.vic.edu.au (Laura Murphy) Date: Wed, 3 Mar 2021 02:40:56 +0000 Subject: [Design and Technology] looking for good examples of 7-10 projects Message-ID: Hi everyone, hope you are well. As you might know, DATTA Vic puts on virtual teach meets for our members regularly - we've run them in the past looking at sustainability, teaching online and Google resources. We'd like the next one to focus on 7-10 Design & Technologies projects, and we're looking for any teachers who might like to share their activities. Ideally, we'd have 3 projects - one focussing on w/m/p, another on textiles and one on electronic principles and systems. We'll run the session from 4pm - 5.30pm via webex, and it'll be free for our members. We'd love to have 3 presentations of approx 20 mins each, and then we'd have some time at the end for a chat. I'm sure you're all very used to Webex after last year, but if you haven't used it, it's super easy! You just join via the link I send, and then when you are ready, you can share your screen to show slides or images. I can have a practice run with you if that helps. If you're interested, please get in touch with me at pl at datta.vic.edu.au. And if you have ideas for topics that you'd like to see discussed at future teach meets, please do send me them as well. FYI we're just finalising the details of our term 2 teach meet, which will be virtual tours of three new Design & Technologies facilities - I'll share the details as soon as we have this ready to go.

My 'Altitude' class have nearly finished the nest boxes which were started last year. We have 10 made from vic ash and will be ready to be sent off to Gippsland early term 2. How have your classes gone with completing these, as well as all the other DATTA vic members? Do you have a date in mind to send these off? Or did you organise a shipping container to do so?

Regards, Lorraine Tran ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Tony Ellwood AM Date: Sun, 28 Mar. 2021, 10:14 am Subject: Design the world you want To: National Gallery of Victoria [image: NGV] [image: NGV] [image: The Living Coral Biobank] DESIGN THE WORLD YOU WANT Dear friends, On Friday, NGV launched the biggest Melbourne Design Week yet. Open until 5 April, the festival will host over 300 exhibitions, talks, films, tours and workshops across Victoria and online. This year centres around the provocation ‘Design the world you want’, asking us all to consider the potential for design to shape the future and address some of the pressing issues facing our whole environment at this time. Here are a few highlights from this year's program to look forward to. Returning to Melbourne Design Week is the Waterfront series , curated by the Centre for Architecture Victoria | Open House Melbourne. There are nearly twenty talks, workshops and exhibitions on offer which focus on Melbourne’s water sources and how the city might further embrace these through an enhanced role for design and architecture. This walking tour takes visitors through the Bolin Bolin Billabong with the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation and Melbourne Water. Walkers will learn how Bolin Bolin have been able to restore the water's ecological integrity while also maintaining its cultural significance, and how this has improved the habitat for local wildlife as well as the community. In 2021 the Waterfront series has expanded beyond Melbourne and into East Gippsland. One of the standout programs hosted in Lakes Entrance is Rethinking Regional Recovery . Here, Monash University Master of Architecture students share their visions of how we can improve long-term design processes for the future by better incorporating local knowledge and deconstructing sectoral silos. In light of the devastating impact the 2019/20 bushfires had on the area, many of the projects focus on questioning the moral role of architects in recovery building. Another must-see of this year’s program is a series of events, installations and talks by some of Australia’s leading architectural practices under the umbrella project called A New Normal , which challenges Melbourne to become an entirely self-sufficient city by 2030. Ha Architecture , for example, has envisioned a greenhouse that demonstrates how land can be simultaneously and symbiotically used for both agriculture and solar energy production. Grimshaw X Greenshoot X Greenaway is live streaming their vision for an electric vehicle ‘pit-stop’ of the future , where cars will be charged, serviced and their parts repurposed. In addition, a beautiful  Rooftop Solar Pavilion has been created by John Wardle Architects, which marries Melbourne’s love of rooftop experiences with architecture that meets our need for solar-generated power. For those looking for a new cafe this weekend, I suggest putting jam café at the top of your list. Created by JamFactory Australian Made, the space celebrates uniquely Australian designed and made furniture, lighting and objects. Whilst enjoying a coffee, visitors are invited to test out design wares created by JamFactory and other local designers and makers including Rolf Barfoed, Rowsaan, Ashlee Hopkins and Andrew Carvolth. A trip to jam café is also an opportunity to visit new design exhibitions like Broached Recal l, which shares twelve applied arts-objects, created in a collaboration between Broached Commissions and Elton Group. Each work brings into dialogue both the past and the present by combining eight heritage timber species with contemporary reconstructed veneer and comments on the design industry's contribution to a world full of products that are devoid of life. Visitors may find themselves escaping reality for just a moment as they wander through Wonderstruck . This exhibition asked designers and artists to imagine a happy place, and then bring it to life. Filled with colour, adventure and fantasy, this collection of works embrace design as a way to bring happiness and hope. After the many challenges we have faced in the last twelve months, there is no greater time than now to envision our future and explore the ideas fuelling the work of design leaders, innovators and makers. I hope you can join us at one of the many thought-provoking Melbourne Design Week programs across the next week.
